SSE2 (Streaming SIMD Extensions 2), is a set of CPU instructions introduced back in 2000. The Intel Pentium 4 was the first to have these new instructions. However, programs requiring SSE2 leave SSE-only (or partial) machines locked out. So, Roytam1 has put an end to this issue. His custom Firefox 45 web browser builds remove the SSE2 requirement and implement new updates. Firefox for Pentium 3 systems is now here! Also, older systems, embedded machines, and others can browse the web freely!
Features:
Based on Firefox 45
SSE-friendly (Works on CPU's as old as Pentium III)

Notes:
Roytam1's official No-SSE2 Firefox 45 code can be found here.
